Labiaplasty
Enlarged labia minora (vaginal lips) that may protrude and / or hang lower than is considered normal are fairly common to encounter. In most cases this is genetic (you are born like this), whilst for some women the shape and size of the labia can change as they get older. A surgical procedure known as labiaplasty can help to reduce the size of enlarged lips, and restore both aesthetic and physical comfort to the patient.
Labiaplasty is usually performed on the inner labia (labia minora) as these are more likely to become stretched, however, the outer labia (labia majora) can also be addressed. The procedure will be customised to meet each individual patient’s anatomy and expectations. A small cut is made either along the edge of the lips and excess skin is trimmed away, or inside the most prominent part of the labia and a wedge of skin is removed (wedge labiaplasty). Dissolvable stitches are used to close the wound and will therefore not require removal.
The results of a labiaplasty can help to increase a woman’s confidence both in everyday life, and in relationships. Reducing the labia can eliminate any visibility in tight clothing, as well as improve any discomfort from large labia that rubs or chaffs, or generally feels uncomfortable.

Frequently asked questions
Am I suitable for labiaplasty?
Labiaplasty may be suitable for women who have concerns with the size of the labia (vaginal lips). Either the outer or inner labia (labia majora or labia minora) may have become enlarged or stretched, and each can be addressed. A thorough pre-treatment assessment will establish suitability.
Is this procedure safe?
Women can feel assured that they are in safe hands at Chester Cosmetic Surgery. Miss Breahna is a leading consultant plastic surgeon with many years experience, and takes great care of her patients.
Will this procedure hurt?
The genitals are very sensitive and the procedure may be painful. A local anaesthetic is used to completely numb the area, and suitable pain relief can be taken at home to ease any post-surgery discomfort.
Are there any side effects or risks?
Following the procedure, patients can expect the labia to be swollen and tender. This usually resolves within a couple of weeks, when it may also be possible to resume many of your usual activities – including going back to work. You will need to ensure strenuous exercise and heavy lifting is avoided until you are feeling much more comfortable.
When will I see the results?
A full recovery is expected within 6 weeks of surgery, and is the time you’re likely to see the final result.
